Daylight Saving Time begins this weekend on Sunday, March 13, when clocks “spring forward” an hour. We will get one less hour of sleep overnight.
Although most schools in our area have ended the mask mandate, we will continue to exercise caution as we have families coming from different parts of NJ and also PA. The West Windsor-Plainsboro school district also requires K-5 to continue wearing masks indoors. Therefore, please continue to follow our current protocol to keep everyone healthy and safe.
-
Be sure to self-screen for symptoms prior to attending school in person
-
Always wear a mask properly when indoors and at crowded places outdoors.
-
Cooperate with the temperature checks at the entrance.
-
Mask on properly at all times when in Beth Chaim
-
Contact principal@pcls.org immediately if tested positive for COVID-19.
-
Follow CDC guidelines on quarantine and isolation in this link here. Do not come to school if you have symptoms.
